Student’s family robbed, father shot behind her sorority house
Students can stretch their buying power
By Liz Washburn

Police were still looking for two men Sunday following an armed robbery Friday afternoon in back of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority house at 814 W. 28th St., in which a student's father was shot in the calf.
"This is a scary thing for everybody and I think how charming it is for a parent," said university Department of Public Safety Deputy Chief Robert Taylor, who spoke to members of the sorority following the incident.
DPS and Los Angeles police believe that the parents, who were visiting from Missouri for the weekend, were followed back to 28th Street by the two suspects after shopping at South Coast Plaza in Orange County.
The father told police he saw the suspects' brown Oldsmobile
Cutlass station wagon with faded simulated wood siding and may have even bumped into one of the men, when the couple stopped for gas at the Chevron at Exposition Boulevard and Figueroa Street.
"These guys look for an expensive car and follow them to rob them," Taylor said, noting that the couple was driving a BMW 325i.
The couple pulled into the back lot of the house about 2 p.m., got out of the car and stopped to talk with a member of the house on the back steps. The suspects, who had parked on 30th Street, then approached the group.
One man stood in front of them with a gun, while the other began tugging at the mother's rings, Taylor said. When the father raised his voice to try to get the men to calm down, the man
armed with a stainless steel semiautomatic pistol fired and shot the father in the left calf.
When the father began yelling, the suspects fled with the father's watch and a bracelet.
Naveen Kanal, a senior majoring in business, who was moving belongings out of the house immediately behind the Alpha Delta Pi house, heard the shot and saw the men running to their car.
Kanal got in his car and followed the men to the car and wrote down the license plate number. He then followed the car down 30th Street to Hoover Boulevard, where the car went right. Kanal turned left into University Village to call in the license plate number to 911.

Robert Stenson knows that on a student's meager budget, every little bit helps.
So by making ties with several Los Angeles-area businesses that cater to the college community, he has found a way to bring students discounts from an assortment of stores and restaurants.
SAVE, the Students Associated Value Exchange, is the result of Stenson's efforts.
"For a college student, a few dollars saved can often mean the difference between .going out on Saturday night and watching TV," he said.
SAVE provides 14 colleges in Southern California with discounts from a variety of businesses located along the coast from Marina Del Rey to Long Beach, and as far inland as Pasadena, he said.
Some of those on USC's list are the Pantry, the Green Burrito, Kinko's Copy Centers and many more, Stenson said.
Students can also purchase discount tickets for ski resorts and amusement parks.
The SAVE membership card and a Network Guide listing the businesses that are part of the network cost $10, said Stenson.
Memberships are currently being sold on campus by student organizations in conjunction with the USC Volunteer Center, each of whom share a 25 percent commission for each sale.
The SAVE network is always seeking to include any other businesses that students find themselves frequenting and encourages any suggestions, said Stenson.

School of Business aids earthquake recovery

To help small businesses recover from the Jan. 17 earthquake, the USC School of Business is sponsoring the Earthquake Recovery Assistance Program.
MBA students in the program have been trained to help businesses fill out the Small Business Adminstration Disaster Assistance Loan Applications to get financial aid.
"We have trained 20 students in the past week and we are expecting to train more

Jonathan Goldsmith, director of Ihe program.
Eric DiPado, the student coordinator for
the program, also commented on the volunteers. "We have been very happy with the number of MBA volunteers that we have gotten. The enthusiasm of this group could not be better."
The assistance program is now moving into its second phase. It will be advertising throughout the community and at all the Disaster Assistance Centers to let people know that they will offer free workshops on how to fill out SBA loan applications.
When a business calls the program, its
mr\r\rAn rorJ |n eon jf fKg tccicfinro
program can help. If not, the volunteers refer the company to other programs or hotlines that might be able to help.
If the Earthquake Recovery Assistance Program can help, a time is scheduled for the business to come to the workshop.
The applications can be very extensive and confusing, so each student is paired with a business through the whole workshop.
The student answers any questions the business might have, and after the workshop, the student and the business schedule other times to meet. Those meetings are for additional questions or problems that may need answering.
The program expects to help at least 30 small businesses fill out loan applications.
